In 1822 seven bored English aristocrats decide a game using third and illegitimate sons will spice up the season. The winner of the contest will gain a title, an estate and a wealthy bride. Each agrees to let the games begin.
Sebastian Deville meets the criteria and decides to enter the competition for two competing reasons; first to gain affluence and influence to help the poor and second he also sees this as his only chance to inherit his mom's estates, which would enable him to avenge the affront of a lifetime. Lord Cheevers' daughter Sarah Pim is the icing on the cake to the winner as 'The Bride Price,' but Sebastian prefers the companion Caroline Martin. As he falls in love with Caroline, Sebastian must choose between his long term dream of acceptance by the Ton and his acceptance of being in love with the wrong female.
This fabulous late Regency romance focuses on the aristocratic status of unmarried women and illegitimate men. The storyline is fast-paced from the moment 'His Grace' never his father informs Sebastian of 'The Bride Price' contest and never slows down as the lead male falls in love with the wrong woman. Ann Mallory provides a well written historical.
